Legacy Health CEO Retires, Dr. George Brown Returns on Interim Basis as Hospital System Prepares for Merger with OHSU

Charles Wilhoite, chair of Legacy’s board of directors, announced that Kathryn Correia, who has been the chief executive at Legacy Health since June 2018, will be retiring. Dr. George Brown, who previously served as Legacy’s CEO from 2008 to 2018, will return to the position on an interim basis.

Anna Loomis, Legacy’s chief financial officer, also announced her departure in an email sent to staff. Wilhoite praised Anna’s critical role in steering Legacy towards financial strength and helping them achieve their objectives despite economic challenges.

In her email to staff, Correia explained that she is retiring for health reasons following an injury sustained in a fall last November. She acknowledged that the accumulated stress of the past four years had impacted her resiliency, leading to a longer recovery period than expected. This realization prompted her decision to retire and focus on her well-being.

Legacy Health is currently going through a merger with Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU), which is expected to bring changes in leadership as the hospital system moves towards a new chapter in its history.
